That is all I know about it. Ford engines are not my thing, and this one doesn't like to run. It hates to start, and when it does start, it wants to die. It likes to flood out. We were able to drive it a little by proping open the 3&4th barrels on the carb. I didn't know if the gas had turned to varnish in the carb, or what. Any info on why it is acting the way it is would be appreciated.

P.S. pic of engine can be seen in my gallery.
